I cannot recall the best advice
I got from my father
but the best
advice I got from
a man that's not
my father
is to
make friends with loneliness
If you and loneliness are enemies
you'll be lonely
but once you and loneliness are
friends you'll be solitary
The difference between loneliness
and solitude
is the difference
between
the naive kid who thinks one's
happiness depends upon others
and the wise sage who knows that
one's happiness depends
only on
one's self
and one's self alone.
and I believed them
the voices said
there's nothing like
waking up deep into the night
and not hearing any voices
and I believed them
priorities
if I knew I was
going to die
tomorrow
would I spend today
writing more
or
saying goodbye to my loved ones?
hardest choice of my life
maybe I'll write my goodbye
in the form of another poem
to make the best of both worlds
People like you die young
People like you die young, she said
You don't drink, don't
do drugs, eat healthy, rarely
go out, rarely meet new girls
But you keep on writing, boy, you
keep on writing
and that's enough to outweigh
all the above
You'll see

Testosterone
she doesn’t let me drink
and insists
that I listen to her
insists with
a viciousness
“It’s because you work night shifts,”
she says.
“What’s that got to do with drinking
while I’m free?”
“Alcohol lowers a man’s testosterone level
and increases estrogen. Why
don’t you know that? You
need to take better care of
yourself.”
she made for me a diet with
rice and garlic
calls me while on the night shift
and tells me to go into the bathroom
and jump 100 times
and do stretching exercises,
tells me to drink more water
She even buys me bags of nuts and seeds
and tells me to eat between the meals
“No sugar,” she says. “No, not even in
coffee. Pure black or nothing.”
she even bought me a
hand grip strengthener with adjustable resistance
to use while I’m in the office
she encouraged me to eat
raw…

The Best Parts
best part about having no friends
is having no enemies either
best part of having no significant other
is being able to feel whole by yourself
best part of solitude is
solitude
best part of loneliness is...
I wouldn't know that. I never
felt lonely.
only his insanity
the last time he went out of
his mind he liked it
so much there
that he never came back
not even after the
alcohol left
his blood
he keeps writing to this day
addresses women with 'sweangel'
a combination of sweet
and angel, I guess
but never spends more
than a matter of weeks
with any of them
some take pity on him
and some morbid curiosity
but no one loves him
truly
only his insanity

you exist most of the time
you don't exist when
my eyes are open
you don't exist when
my blood's not poisoned
when my soul's at peace
when my gut is full
and when I'm in company
So you exist most of the time
